Cool Knitting/Warm Fellowship

Knitters of Eastminster

Eastminster offers members several opportunities to share their knitting skills while enjoying fellowship with others. The two knitting groups are Afghan Ministry and Cool Knitting, Warm Fellowship.

Afghan Ministry meets the first Wednesday of each month in the Haines Administration Center from 9:00 am to 10:00 am. This past year this group completed 11 afghans which were distributed to local organizations, who serve those experiencing emergencies or need. A label is added to a completed afghan designating that is was made by the Knitters of Eastminster Presbyterian Church York, PA 17402.

Cool Knitters, Warm Fellowship meets every Wednesday from 10:00 am to Noon in the Haines Reception Room. Members of this group will not only share new patters but will also teach you to knit if you haven’t yet learned this skill. It is not necessary to stay the two hours. Come and go as you wish.

Special Projects completed by these groups include:

Prayer Shawls

Afghans

Prayer Squares

Baby Blankets

Baby Angel Buntings

Hats

Mittens

Leper Bandages

Knitted Knockers

Ugly Mittens for dialysis patients

East York Elementary Hat and Mitten Project
